The Federalists and Centralists had different ideas about the formation of the United States.
The Central Government
After the Articles of Confederation were written, there were problems with it. Confederationists thought that the Articles were a fine way to run the country, but the nationalists did not. They favored a stronger national government than the one the Articles provided. Later, the founding fathers wrote the constitution, but there were some problems getting it ratified, or passed. This is where federalists and anti-federalists came into play. Anti-federalists were against the constitution, and in case you haven't already guessed, most ant-federalists were confederationists to start off. Federalists were all for the ratification of the constitution of the United States.
The Federalists, who wanted strong government, were reluctant to add a Bill of Rights to the Constitution. They said that the rights of American people were already made known in the body of the constitution. The Anti-Federalists, who wanted strong local and state governments, wanted the rights of Americans explicitly listed so they could not be changed, challenged, or argued.
The major compromises between the federalists and the anti-federalists include individual versus federal rights. It also includes the resolution of slavery under a republican government, as well as state rights versus federal government in relation to taxation and the military.
Federalists were overwhelmingly northern; Anti-Federalists were overwhelmingly southern
